Keep in mind that while the rank system is kind of a power level thing, there's "official" tests to be certified at a given rank (we see Fate getting her AAA and Subaru and Teana going for B). You...

Well, HE damage isn't the same thing as AP damage when it comes to penetrating armor. ;p

I don't buy that you could do that as a good tactic.

I don't buy the "Signum was once a person" idea.

Nope, the TSAB isn't the Federation.

For one thing, it seems a lot less worried about holding territory per se. This makes sense if you consider that they're dimensional travelers, and so at least...

Hayate's a special case. She's got everything that the Book of Darkness ever absorbed, at least theoretically, so she's got both powerful Mid and Belkan magic. (Not that anyone would recommend that...
